Article: USB 4.0 Is A No-Go, For Now

I bet that we should have realized all three brands were coming from the same country, maybe in some cases someone over there could feel very so free to claim just about anything without the burden of proof?

Heck, Yottamaster turned out to be nothing more than a trademark of Orico to begin with

In other words, we've gotta know what the deal is by now.

 

BTW, the stringent requirements of USB 4.0 turned out to require some kinda certification / compliance etc. in order to achieve 40Gbps for real

Or maybe only the cables would require that certification from Intel or something?

Ouch, I forgot to ask if Chris were having any Thunderbolt 3 cables so that switching to JHL7440 might give us an idea of how close one could get to that 2,800MB/sec (theoretical) limit

Wow, that’s unlike any other Thunderbolt-equipped Mac I’ve ever used. System Report indicates that there are two Thunderbolt buses, one for each of the Thunderbolt ports!! This means that each port has its own dedicated bus and doesn’t have to share its bandwidth with any other port. Each one will have 2,800 MB/sec all to itself. I was a bit skeptical and wanted to test this to be certain.

The author is not the source of the problem it's the failure to read the entire article from the beginning to the end.

 

It's 16TB SATA spinner at the very beginning, and then the author clearly stated that's changed to a 2TB NVMe SSD afterwards.

 

Duh.
